Is this what is used in aquarium filters? Thanks!

Yes, Marineland's carbon is cleaner than most, requiring less rinsing to get rid of the carbon dust before you put it in the filter. I strongly recommend using a filter bag to contain the carbon before putting it in a filter.

Yes, it is used for aquariums and fish ponds to keep the water clear and free of toxins. I do not think there is any information stating it is safe for use with humans, so assume it is not.

Theresa, They are used on whats called D.E fIlters or Dieatamasus Earth. It's a fine white sandy type material. The side of your filter will give you this information. Good Luck let me know if you have other questions

Yes, this is what I use in my Gevalia coffee maker. It's a lot better than the paper filters. Cheaper in the long run

I plan to try this site next purchase but you can also ask foster and smith website for other options I have used. http://spectrapure.com/AQUARIUM/SEDIMENT-CARBON-FILTERS-DI-CARTRIDGES-RESIN The order left to right is sediment filter, carbon, then the DI cartridge.

I am not quite sure. I only used what came with the tank. I do agree that the filter is a little too powerful for this small of a tank. I would just ask that question on google.

I use them in a turtle tank but without the model name/number of your filter, I'm not sure.

I don't think that you can. I am using it in a 75 gallon tank with a fluval fx5 filter. It is not performing like I had hoped. By the way, it has a very funky smell (new out of the container too).

I use it for my aquatic turtle (red eared slider) in an FX5 canister filter as the first stage filtration. I change it approx. every 2-3 months. Keep in mind I have 4 of them in there at one time in stage 1. For fish tanks, I am not sure.

Just cut a piece from filter foam sheet. They sell a whole filter package at Petsmart for $5. I use them in my canister filter.

Yes probably. I have a 75 gallon freshwater planted tank and I have an Eheim filter. In the two of the three baskets of filter media I have this. This is a fabulous product as it keeps the good bacteria in the aquarium on the media. I just rinse it out every time I clean the tank with lukewarm water and reuse it until it gets the color of a dark caramel. Hope this helps and good luck.

I use these filters on my cichlid tanks . I don't know what is required for a marine tank . If a skimmer is a standard item I would think you would need one .

As Hometown 72 said, each filter has its specific use. I have both fresh water tropical and goldfish ( in different tanks of course). I use the zeolite for the goldfish and carbon for my freshwater tropical. With the marina filter using two filters, I change one out every 1st of the month and then the second one out around the middle of the month. It really helps to keep the tank clean. I buy bulk through amazon and save that way on the cost.

Just drop it anywhere in the tank; not in the filter. This thing works in addition to the filter. Using both is great.

I'm not sure. There is a thin, dark sheet inside the filters--but I'm not sure what it is made of. Hope this helps. The interior sheet is about an inch smaller than the filter and appears to have a rough texture.

This is a component of the fluval canister filter. For a five gallon tank the canister filter would be too large for your filtering needs. Hope this helped!!

Yes , this is the filter . I find it works great... does not cleaning as often as another type I used with an old pump. AS Karen said, it is easily removed and replaced. I also rinse the housing while I am cleaning the filter,along with any hose. Purchased an extra filter, so can use one, while I clean the other.
